The Best Sex Toys 2025, Tested and Reviewed
In this article, we have all the ways you can clean and properly store your vibrators and your non-motorized sex toys. This good-looking toy from Swedish sexual wellness brand Smile Makers was a firm favourite among our panel thanks to its multi-tasking abilities. After 13 years in the sexual wellness industry, it’s not a huge exaggeration to say I’ve tried close to 1,000 sex toys. Everything I’ve ever tested from Crave has been excellent vibrators, and naturally, that extends to the Vesper Mini.
All in all, I like it and I’m going to use it, but the people who absolutely should buy one are those who run sex clubs and dungeons. As far as I see it, sitting on the machine feels inherently kinky, and this can only be enhanced by exhibitionism or BDSM, so the perfect place to use one may be at a sex party or a kink meet-up. If you can spare the cash and want a literal sex machine in your home, definitely buy a Motorbunny Buck. I feel like a badass having one, even if I do have to awkwardly explain its presence to my cat sitter. If you want to go big and bold and can afford it, it’s worth the cost — and you deserve the orgasms.
Below, we’ve assembled some of the best masturbators and penis toys, according to sex experts and educators. You’ll find high-quality, best-selling sex toys from brands like Tenga, Fleshlight, Fun Factory, Hot Octopuss, Arcwave, Lovehoney, and Lelo. While most discreet vibrators are compact in size, this one is fully disguised and functional as a chic statement necklace.
Its three intensities make it a straightforward choice for beginners, but there’s more to it than meets the eye. “The lowest vibration is a warm, rumbly sensation; the middle ramps up in fluttering; the highest intensity is eye-poppingly strong yet simultaneously gentle,” she previously wrote in her review. To find the best sex toys designed to be used remotely at any distance, Good Housekeeping health editors surveyed half a dozen real-life consumer testers currently in long-distance relationships. A vibrating penis ring that can be controlled remotely in the same manner that a panty vibrator can?
Given its size and the lack of a travel pouch, the wand isn’t the best toy for travel — but for a solo or partnered date at home, it’s perfect (dare I say, magic). Depending on what position you’re in, it can be super awkward to reach down during sex to change the settings on a vibrating cock ring—but not this one, which can be controlled on your phone via We-Vibe’s app. It amps up the sensations of penetrative sex, and can also be a fun addition to masturbation. And like most cock rings, it provides a little compression at the base of your shaft that can help you maintain a stronger erection.
The clitoris gets lots of attention—and for good reason—but there’s another area worthy of some serious stimulation. We’re talking about the G-spot, of course, which is most easily aroused via G-spot vibrators designed specifically to target this erogenous zone. We test a lot of sex toys and accessories here at WIRED, and there isn’t enough room in one list for all of our favorite picks. There’s barely enough room on this list for all the toys we’d consider phenomenal , let alone the ones we consider the absolute best.
Alongside other We-Vibe toys on this list, this Nova 2 toy is fully remotely accessible via the We-Vibe app. Lovense’s most popular offerings for people with penisesis less a penetrative sex simulator and more of a holistic vibrator with mind-blowing constriction that’s temperature-controlled, too. Testers indicated that this gadget felt like a highly customized hand job which set it apart from other sleeves on this list. Alongside the Nora or another Max 2, Lovense gives you the capability of syncing up each toys to each other’s rhythms and movements, so it truly feels like lovers are experiencing the same eroticism in step with one another. Made in a familiar shape that’s time-honored, this rabbit vibrator brings all the features you already love into the future with Lovense’s mobile application. Designed to pair with the Lovense Max 2 masturbator (featured below), the Nora will respond in real time to thrusts and other motions so that each toy simulates live sex, despite being apart.
Of course, we mean that in the emotional/spiritual/mental way, but we also mean that if you don’t have a vibrator you love at the moment, it’s time to get one. That said, it’s wise to think about how you want to use your new toy. If you plan on using your vibrator during partnered sex, you may want to opt for one that’s slimmer and less intrusive. If you’re using the toy solo, you might not care if it has a cord or has a larger, clunkier design. This depends on a range of different factors, including material, frequency of use and whether you’ve been cleaning it regularly. This was made even more enjoyable by the buttons, which (unlike on many bullet vibrators) are smooth to press and accessible, making this a good pick for first-time buyers.
But some people do still view masturbation as wrong or harmful, and sometimes those people may be the ones you have to live with. Those views are often based in ignorance over how bodies work, or are spread by religious institutions that believe masturbation is sinful and thus want to discourage people from doing it. Most comparable to the Pom on this list, Mimi is a tad cheaper and has two more vibration patterns for a total of seven. Interestingly, Je Joue’s website contradicts itself by saying it has six or seven patterns, depending on where you look; the booklet that arrives with the toy says six, as well. Oscillation technology was originally used for men who had spinal cord injuries but wanted to get their partners pregnant.
